Gambling flicks and Wong Jing go hand in hand. Sometimes other plot elements that do not seem to be involved in the flick get thrown in such as Ah Fans (Stanley Fung Shui Fan) adventure to the Philippines to bring back a Filipina wife (Maria Isabel Lopez-Miss Philippines 1982). Nevertheless, the flick was a decent watch. In this one, die hard gambler Lolanto (Nat Chan) is pressed into giving up gambling if he wants the love of his life, Hung (Joyce Godenzi), to marry him. The kicker is this: in order to marry Hung, Lolanto must beat Hungs Father, King Gambler Hsin (Chu Yuan), in 3 different gambling events in order to win Hungs hand in marriage.
